If you are a Star Trek geek and also love steampunk, the two have now merged: Here’s a set of very well-done photoshoppery by Rabbittooth. Hit the link.

Classic Kirk is just as pissed as we are about 90210 Kirk as we are. Appropriately so. One can only hope Kirk and Spock go into the future and fuck this movie up.

Shatner has taken his war of words with former STAR TREK castmate GEORGE TAKEI into cyberspace, by insisting the newlywed is “sad” and “sick” for not inviting him to his recent same-sex marriage ceremony.

In a new video, posted on YouTube.com, Shatner says:

“The whole thing makes me feel badly. The poor man, there’s such a sickness there. It’s so patently obvious that there’s a psychosis there. “I don’t know what his original thing about me was; I have no idea. I didn’t read his book that was printed many years ago but apparently I didn’t let somebody have a close -up.”

Captains log…I…am hurt…Must…attend…gay..wedding…so sad.

Because my sad geek life likes this badass concept, you are forced to watch too.

Bead curtains are not just for 1960’s hippie dens anymore. These are made by artist Devorah Sperber. Kind of like pixel-art in 3D, she slides tens of thousands of beads onto threads to create these detailed geek portraits. This is some retro cool geek awesomeness right here.

Some of her works include the holodeck door, Enterprise-D’s bridge, and her “beaming down” series, which looks like the “real” special effect.
